What is your BMI index ? :
http://www.nhlbi.nih.gov/health/educ...MI/bmicalc.htm
Mine is about 21.6 but it might be as low as like around 21.3 because I didn't weigh myself first thing in the morning. Also, keep in mind that I'm athletic :
BMI is a useful measure of overweight and obesity. It is calculated from your height and weight. BMI is an estimate of body fat and a good gauge of your risk for diseases that can occur with more body fat. The higher your BMI, the higher your risk for certain diseases such as heart disease, high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, gallstones, breathing problems, and certain cancers.
Although BMI can be used for most men and women, it does have some limits:
It may overestimate body fat in athletes and others who have a muscular build.
It may underestimate body fat in older persons and others who have lost muscle.
Underweight = <18.5
Normal weight = 18.5–24.9
Overweight = 25–29.9
Obesity = BMI of 30 or greater

BMI: 26.3
Height: about 5' 11.5" (181.6 cm)
Weight: about 191 lbs (been awhile since I've weighed myself, though)
I guess I'm technically overweight, though you'd never know it to look at me. BMI confuses me some for that reason.

23.5, I have strong bones (I did the wrist measurement with the fingers, I can't touch).
But I am not exactly sure about my real height and my real weight.

But wouldn't a poll be a better option?
